Flexibility: The Company has no obligation to sell any shares under the agreement and may suspend solicitation and offers at any time. Actual sales will depend on market conditions and factors determined by the Company.
Risks and Contingencies: The filing notes that sales may be made as "at-the-market" offerings or in negotiated transactions. The report includes standard disclaimers that it does not constitute an offer to sell securities in jurisdictions where such an offer would be unlawful.
